Workers Comp in Kenthurst — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Horses account for a large share of the serious injuries around Kenthurst, and roofing and carpentry on the acreage blocks account for much of the rest. A kick or a crush injury needs proper imaging and a doctor's report, and the Certificate of Capacity comes out of that same visit. One appointment with our doctors covers the examination and the paperwork. The physio that gets the shoulder or knee working again is funded by the accepted claim.

Book a WorkCover doctor in KenthurstGet your Certificate of Capacity
Your doctor issues this on the first visit. It’s the legal document that proves you have a work injury and tells the insurer how much you can work and what treatment you need. No paperwork on your end — the doctor handles it.
